Home > Services > Nextrip Bus Arrivals > Bus Stop Number
A Bus Stop Number (#) is a unique identification number for each bus stop within the Metro system. By knowing your Stop Number, you can access arrival information directly without navigating through multiple bus lines, etc.
We're making plans to place these numbers on our Bus Stop signs on the street. In the meantime, there are many ways to find your Bus Stop Number online. Once you find your Stop Number(s), keep them in a convenient place so you can take them with you on your trips.
Real-time Rail schedules are not yet included in Nextrip, but watch for them in the future! See scheduled Rail information.

Call 511 and say “Look-up a stop number”. Then follow the prompts. You’ll need to know your Metro bus line, direction and stop name (intersection). Then 511 will tell you the bus stop number, as well as the next three arrival times for that bus line.
Once you have selected your Line and Bus Stop with the online Stop Finder, look for the Stop Number displayed on the lower-right hand corner of the results box. The Stop Numbers are called-out in the visual below:

Metro Bus and Rail System information is already on Google Maps. If you use Google Maps/Transit, you can find the Bus Stop # listed when a Metro Stop is mentioned (they are called Stop IDs in Google Maps). The Stop Numbers are called-out in the visual below:
